Underrated albums that are forgotten by most...

[RuffDraft]

Speaking of that album, I bought it back in 2005 with an extended version with remixes. This album was critically acclaimed and featured a young Kool Keith in 1988. The sound is dirty, scratchy and heavy with samples on the album. This album was overlooked due to the fact at the same time, you had classic work released by EPMD, Public Enemy, Big Daddy Kane, NWA, Stetsasonic, DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince, The Jungle Brothers, Biz Markie. Prodigy's favorite rapper is Kool Keith, especially the song "Give the Drummer Some" which included the line for Prodigy's song "Smack My 'Bitch' Up." Another note, the song "Ego Trippin" was used in Amerie's Why R U.[video=youtube;2OWqhVoGw1c]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OWqhVoGw1c[/video]​

Do you find yourself revisiting this album a lot?

I listened to it once or twice, but it never fell into rotation... I know it gets its props, but do you find it entertaining on that level?

I've been bumpin' Low End Theory today, great album.

Oh yes. I'll need to get another copy of it. But, I can play that for the rest of my life!!!!

I've heard the song "Broken Language" on Sirius Backspin radio. I wouldn't mind giving it a try.

Yeah it was a Classic in my books, it had that classic Wu Tang sound to it. beat and lyrics where on point. more importantly the beats, i think all the wu tang members are talented Emcee's but their album relies on their beat selection. i mean i do have Tical 0: the prequel which is one of the weakest cd's ive got. and thats because of the shitty production. where as cd's like No Said date and OB4CB 2 had tight production.

Agreed. Although, it wouldn't be rated as one of my classics in my collection, it's definitely a solid 8-9/10.

Another underrated album:

Personal classic, it's never really mentioned on underground boards, which is really bizarre to me, after I played it for over 3 months on repeat.

I don't think many have found themselves at home like k-os did with this LP. From the music that he produced to the vocals that he dropped, it's a tough catalogue to choose from, but I think this is his best work to date.

Great first choice, but what is the second release? I've not got that album...

Philadelphia Freeway - Freeway

Decent album, possibly underrated, but Freeway isn't someone I'd rate up there like that...

These two tracks were 'bangers' though:

When Just Blaze was 'blazing', shame he got lost in his path in comparison to label mate Kanye. I had him above Kanye for a while.
